Shana Tova!

Okay, the wish is a few days late by the time I post it here (it means Happy New Year!)….but I figure that we are still in the middle of the High Holy Days and it’s appropriate. Ezra and I attended a family service for Rosh Hashana last week (the Yom Kippur service is this upcoming Saturday), and let me say this: 30 minute family services are a great invention. It was nice that the service here was a thoughtful, Rabbi-lead service….not an afterthought. It was fun to be able to participate in things that connected with Ezra, and just as importantly, to not worry when he would loudly sing along or dance in the aisles. With the help of his friend Micah, Ezra found a kippah and proudly wore it for the services.
